Euro 2024 joint favourites, England, welcome Brazil to Wembley for a glamour match in the capital in front of a sell-out crowd.
Harry Kane is the most notable absentee but there’s plenty of strength in depth with Ivan Toney and Ollie Watkins waiting in the wings for their chance to shine ahead of Gareth Southgate’s final squad selection.
England are unbeaten in their last 10 outings but Brazil come in to the match off the back of three straight defeats. Dorival Jr takes charge of the five-time World champions for the first time – the 25th role of his managerial career!
His squad includes five players that ply their trade in the Premier League and 11 in total that are uncapped at senior level. Copa America 2024 kicks off in June so there’s places at stake for the Brazilians as well as the Three Lions.
England don’t historically have a good record against Brazil, they’ve only won four 26 meetings, but can claim a win this evening at 10/11.
France too look a good bet at home against Germany. The Euro 2024 hosts struggled in 2023, perhaps missing the competitive edge that qualifiers bring. They won just three of 11 fixtures, losing to Belgium, Poland, Colombia, Japan, Turkey and Austria – hardly a list of International football’s elite.
They did however beat the French in a friendly in Dortmund in September but France can take advantage of being at home and claiming the win at 4/5.
Republic of Ireland are in a state of flux at the moment. John O’Shea has been appointed as interim head coach until someone gets the gig on a full-time basis.
His job will be to steady the ship after a disastrous qualifying campaign that saw the Irish pick up six points – all against Gibraltar.
They just don’t seem to have the quality in their squad at the moment and it’s hard to make a case for them getting anything from a Belgium side who were unbeaten in Group F and are unbeaten In 11.
In League One in Scotland, Alloa (17/20) should be too good at home to Queen of the South who have won just once in 2024.
Clyde’s win away at Bonnyrigg kept their survival hopes alive and made it three wins in four for Ian McCall’s men. They can keep that run going at home to Spartans today at 13/10 although the 6/5 on them score at least twice is potentially a safer way to play it.

Racing Tips
Rizzel is avoiding the Doncaster flat meeting and has stuck up two fancies from Newbury for Saturday's racing.
As always, post your betting tips for today in the comments section below.
In December 2020 we sadly 
Have a single and a treble lined up for today that really need no explaining.
I can’t for the life of me work out why Belgium are priced the way they are. I can’t see Ireland troubling them at all and think they should easily score 2.
Belgium 2+tgls @11/10 is more than generous.
Alloa and chesterfield have both seen recent slip ups but I expect them both to return to winning ways at home against much weaker opponents. Both teams have been scoring freely this season and can see both hitting multiple goals.
Belgium, Alloa, chesterfield 2+tgls treble @4.67/1
Good luck all

A repeat of last year’s league and All-Ireland final in Cork this afternoon. Neither of these teams have been scoring goals during this league campaign. The average goals in all games involving both teams is surprisingly low sitting at 1.5gs. Kilkenny have already won im Cork this year but they were patchy then and have been patchy since only scored two goals so far this year. Limerick have begun to introduce some of their marquee players in recent weeks and will want to lay down a marker here. Stats, form and team news point towards under goals here.
Hurling Division 1

Alloa poor again letting my treble down and looking at the Belgium starting 11 hasn’t filled me with confidence for the single.
Well done all winners so far

Not keen on Watkins playing at this level, Maguire at the back could get terrorised by Brazil’s front 3, got to be goals here, looking at midfielders to score for England.
Bit of an interest for the England/Brazil game ,
Over 3.5 goals
Foden to score
Pays 6/1 ,
Goodluck……….
Belgian 2+tgls was a massive fail and a gentle reminder of why I don’t like going with friendlies.
Not much to look at tomorrow so will have a few days off I think.
Well done all winners
Canada
V
Trinidad and Tobago
20:00
CONCACAF Nations League.
Trinidad to score 11-8 SKYBET
This is a qualifier to compete in the Copa America 2024 after these 2 were eliminated from the concacaf nations league, Canada lost to Jamaica and Trinidad to USA.
Trinidad performed quite well against a USA team I consider better than Canada .
Canada lost 3-2 home to the same Jamaica team Trinidad gels to a draw just this month.
Canada have conceded 2 goals to Cuba and Guadeloupe in the last year.
Canada will likely win being at home and I suspect Trinidad will try and play for penalties so if Canada as expected take the lead I see the game opening up and Canada winning with BTTS.
Prediction 0-0 😂😂😂
Gd luck. Under 2 gls 11/10 hills
Gareth Southgate is a horrible manager not winning nothing with that clown in charge 🤦🏻♂️
It was a friendly haha. A friendly we dominated.
